Happy days

Since it's been a good while, I feel I should update you on the saga. Well, it's complete.

There's no need to detail the entire ordeal, but the plasma display is finally in my house and rocking my world. A couple shots for you....

The side view. If I remember the specs correctly, it measures about 3.5" at its widest.

And this is what I see. 50 diagonal inches of gooey gooey goo. Bonus points if you recognize the movie. Actually, if you don't recognize it, you deserve to be sodomized in an Afghani prison for the rest of your life.

Speaking of terrorists, I was about to vomit until about the 75th minute of the Mexico game. If Iran would've beaten us... I shudder to think about it. Usually I watch El Tri play on Univision, but since this year ABC/ESPN are broadcasting all the games in HD... yeah.

Today I've got a major meeting to attend at 1. The U.S. kicks off at 11. I think if I only go as far as the Hyatt to watch it during a long lunch (a block up the street), I should be able to make it back across the street, up 21 floors, and into the conference room in less than 5 minutes.

I've got this down to a science.
